Using a needleless syringe

[Zaphyrus]

I've taken my dragon to the vet and they recommend I syringe my bd with some water do hydrate her a bit more. Problem is I can't get her mouth open and she won't cooperate. Any suggestions or tricks to this guys?

hi i have a very good way to solve this how about running a warmish bath and put him in it for 15 to 20 mins as they also take water through thier vents at thier tail and thats what mine does because he wont drink either


callum :lol:

I gently pull down the bottom lip on one side and drop in a couple drops of water. Usually this will get him to start licking then you can slowly drop the water on his tongue until he drinks all you want.
